Stamp Something

I have made this card for my friends daughter, gorgeous little Martina. I have nearly finished all of my Christmas cards which is very late I usually have them all out and sent by now. I have entered this card in Stamp Something's Digi Challenge. I can not remember where this image was from but it is very cute, I will have to go for a search and edit this post later to tell you what it is. Well off to make dinner and probably a birthday card for my husband who is out for dinner tonight. xAmanda

Digital Tuesday Challenge

It's a Sparkly Christmas at Digital Tuesday Challenge and I needed to create a small card/gift card for my husbands secret santa present. The person he has to give to is a 30 year old female so I decided this reindeer games digi would be good. I added a little sparkle to her nose and champagne and a couple of red sparkly brads. Thanks for having a look, Amanda.

MOjo Monday Sketch and Card Patterns sketch

I only purchased this cute little guy Francis this morning from Digistamp Boutique, isn't he cute. My daughter loves penguins and her favourite colour is green so I thought I'd practise with greens on these cards before I make something special for her. I have followed Mojo Mondays sketch on this first card.

And I have used the same digi and colour combo on this second card for Card Patterns sketch. I love Stampin up's green galore and taken by teal but both have been taken out of the new catalogue, such a shame. I am making cards this morning to keep myself calm as I'm off to see Bon Jovi in Brisbane tonight and am getting very excited. x Amanda

Anything goes at Creative Card Crew

Wow I am having alot of fun making bonbons, I have entered them in Creative Card Crew anything goes challenge. The pink ones are for the sister and green and red for brothers, I still haven't decided whwt to put in the male ones yet but have a few different ideas. Amanda

Baby it's cold outside

At Digital Tuesday Challenge it is Baby it's cold outside, which is great because I decided to make Christmas bon bons this year and these two friendly snow men are for my nephews. I have found an easy way to make bons bons now and I am very excited as I can personalise everybodys. For the children I am putting flashing Christmas badges and Magical Elves chocolates and for the grown ups lindt balls, christmas ear rings and christmas wine glass rings. Hope you like them I have different ones to post tomorrow.

Colour Throwdown/Mojo Monday

I made this card for the Colour Throwdown challenge red/pear/choc chip or kraft these are not the exact colours but closest I had to work with at the time, also Mojo Monday sketch challenge. All card, ribbon and stamp from Stampin UP.

Stampin for the weekend/Papertake weekly

I made this card for Stampin for the weekend recipe challenge but as I wrote down the recipe I also drew the sketch from Kates beautiful card thinking it was a sketch to follow as well. I love the colours turquoise and purple together so I have also entered in Papertake Weekly challenge blue and green not to be seen. THanks for looking, Amanda

Colour Create Challenge

I have made this card with the colour scheme over at Colour Create, beautiful robin egg blue, foamy sea green and cream. I have used all stampin up products except for the clourung in I used copics. I have also made some smaller versions of these cards and I am hoping to sell them in a pack of 3 for $5 in the staffroom. My friend and work colleague is spending some of the Christmas holidays at an orphanage in EAst Timor so I will give her the money from any card packs sold, fingers crossed.

Mojo Monday

Well I am loving my holidays, making sure I get some craft time in everyday. I have made a boy birthday card today because I found some new papers at spotlight. I have been dissapointed lately with the lack of variety in papers at the local craft shops so I was pleased to find alot of new ones last visit. I have followed the sketch at Mojo MOnday, I might try making the round version of it tonight for my nephews first birthday card. Today I am off to MOvieworld with six children so I am definately going to need some craft time to wind down tonight. Enjoy your day. Amanda

Colour Throwdown and Sketch Saturday

Wow, I really like these colours together, Mellow Moss, Choc Chip and Blush Blossom. This is the colour challenge at Color Throwdown and I think they look quite pretty together. I also followed the sketch at Sketch Saturday . I only just got these stamps, Upsy Daisy from Stampin Up so you'll probably see my next few cards with the same stamp. All of the card and ribbons are from Stampin Up aswell, my stampin up friend Lucinda will be so happy.

Today Iam going out to lunch with some good friends to celebrate one of their birthdays,I love holidays.

Truly SCrumptious Sketch

Hooray school holidays and we are staying home, time to catch up on some crafting. I love this sketch at Truly Scrumptious, the extra option was strawberries and cream which I didn't do because I needed to do a congratulations card first. I found these love heart papers in silver and gold so I made one of each. I really like this sketch it isn't too complicated and I am planning to make a few different cards today following this sketch. I am so happy to have some craft time again I will have to go bake some cakes and cookies to keep my children happy too. Enjoy your holidays. Amanda

Card Patterns

Well I think I can say I am back into a routine where there is time for a bit of crafting a few evenings a week, I needed to have a big clean up of my craft area so it didn't look like such a challenge each time I started to make something. I have entered this card in the card patterns sketch, a friend at work is due very soon and not sure if she is having a girl or boy so I have made a girl one very similar. I have used all stampin up except for the digi image which I think is so cute. Have a look at this sketch at Card Patterns and have a great day.
